	The daytime running lights are just the existing turn signal 
filaments turned on for a constant burn. Turns are accomplished by 
interrupting the appropriate filament intermittantly in the regular 
fashion. The real tricky part comes when the rear lamps are not lit 
with the front ones until you turn, then it's magic.
	The effect of having the front turn signal filaments on for all 
daytime driving IMHO is both safer and very attractive. The Miata can be 
instantly identified from great distances by it's bright jewel like "eyes"
	Watch for the Canadian contingent at the upcoming Miatas at Indy 
II. The Trillium chapter will definitely be there. I was there in 92 Boy 
you guy's know how to have fun! Two hundred cars three hundred people 
Miata fanatics to the soul every one of them. I still remember taking a 
walk at three A.M. and CARS are being washed in the parking lot. We gotta 
be nuts. Love it.
